Is there any way to process the "vignette" documantation files? I have been looking at the bioconductor packages and most of them have *.Rnw files in doc directories. They look like regular TeX but have sections showing R code that seem to choke TeX.

Hi, I am not sure if this is a bug, so I am posting it here. I also searched the FAQ file for the readline string and did not find anything about the behavior below. I just successfully rsync'ed, compiled and tested R-1.4.0 on my RH 7.2 Linux machine. I encountered one problem though. When running ./configure I noticed that I was getting errors from the readline library. Although

I just ran into this strange behavior. y <- rnorm(1000) x <- seq(0, length=length(y)) plot(x, y, type='l', lty=1) - instantaneous plot(x, y, type='l', lty=2) - 18s plotting lines + 15s plotting axes = 33s plot(x, y, type='l', lty=3) - 76s ,, + 75s ,, = 151s plot(x, y, type='l', lty=4) -

I just installed R-1.4.0 on my Win2k machine from SetupR.exe. Everything seems to be fine with the base and recommended packages. However, when I install the lattice and grid packages they do not seem to work. Everything I try results in something like this: Instruction 0x00543f06 refernced memory 0x00000000. The memory cannot be "read". and I am getting kicked out of R. Has

Hi, I am having the following problem and I am not sure if this is bug or I am missing something obvious. I have a bunch of R functions that automatically process large data sets. The processing produces several numerical summaries and several graphs which are subsequently put in reports. I usually do my processing in R BATCH mode on a Win2000 machine. All the graphical functions in my package

Hi, I am trying to compile R-1.3.1 under RH-7.2 Linux. I used the old gcc compiler (kgcc) and the compilation went fine. I can start R and run some rudimentary tasks with no problem. However, when I did make check I got the following error in base-Ex.Rout > fa <- file.access(dir(".")) Error in file.access(dir(".")) : file.access is not implemented on

Hi, I have a problem of estimating a mixture of two normal distributions. I need to find the starting points automatically, since this is a part of a larger piece of image processing code. I found the mix2normal1 function in VGAM package that mentions a method of finding starting values for mu1 and mu2 but refers the reader to a book by Everitt and Hand. Unfortunately, I do not have an easy

Hi, I just installed the odesolve package and ran the check command on it. It failed trying to execute library(gnlm). Sure enough, there is no gnlm library on my system and I could not find it on the CRAN archive either. Am I missing anything obvious or is gnlm some private library that somehow found its way into the example section of odesolve? Thanks in advance, Andy

I also downloaded the rgl package (after reading recent Uwe Ligges' post) and installed in on my Win2k Pro sp2 machine. It seems to work with no problems. I ran most of the examples, including the hist3d one, and all of them worked fine. A couple of thoughts. I have administrative priviliges on my machine. Could this possible make a difference. The rgl library uses OpenGL. Is it a

I am not sure if this is already known. I checked BUGS and found some references to similar behavior when R_HOME is set? Here is what I get: (1) Fresh build of 1.4.1 under Linux/RH-7.2. All tests pass. > R CMD check ctest * checking for working latex ... OK * using log directory `/home/andyj/stat/R-1.4.1/library/ctest.Rcheck' Installing *source* package `ctest'

This is (hopefully) a small request. I routinely build (and test) both R versions from sources on my system (WinXP). I would like to be sure that I have the current version of Rtools. I always go to Robert Murdoch's site "Building R for Windows" and check the latest news. Everything I need is explained there, except I never know if I have the most recent version of Rtools.exe.

I think that there is a bug in the as.POSIXct function on Windows. Here is what I get on Win2000, Pentium III machine in R 1.8.1. > dd1 <- ISOdatetime(2003, 10, 26, 0, 59, 59) > dd2 <- ISOdatetime(2003, 10, 26, 1, 0, 0) > dd2 - dd1 Time difference of 1.000278 hours Now, the 26th of October was the day that change to the standard time occurred, so I suspect that this has

Hi, This happens in 2.8 and 2.9. I am posting this here because I am not sure if one should use bug.report for reporting bugs in unreleased versions. I was trying to run the example from the help page of plot.rpart. I got > library(rpart) > fit <- rpart(Price ~ Mileage + Type + Country, cu.summary) > plot(fit, compress=TRUE) Error in get(getOption("device")) : invalid

Hello all, I have a very simple set of data and I would like to analyze them with probit analysis. The data are: X Event Trial 100 8 8 75 8 8 50 6 8 25 4 8 10 2 8 0 0 8 I want to estimate the value of X that will give a 95% hit rate (Event/Trial) and the corresponding 95% CI. Anyone can offer some help? Thanks!! -

I am about to get a new machine at work - an IBM Intellistation with the Xeon 2.8 GB processor. It will run Windows 2000. I would like to install the proper ATLAS dll for this machine, but I am not sure if Xeon is P4? Does anybody have any experience with Xeon?

A strange thing happened. After installing the most recent RC version of 2.7 (2008-04-20 r45403) I compiled it as usual with no errors. After installing it I ran "make fullcheck". I got as far as testing recommended packages and I got the following: ... -------- Testing package foreign -------- Running examples in 'foreign-Ex.R' ... Comparing `foreign-Ex.Rout' to

Hi, I have the following question about creating data frames. I want to create a data frame with 2 components: a vector and a matrix. Let me use a simple example: y <- rnorm(10) x <- matrix(rnorm(150), nrow=10) Now if I do dd <- data.frame(x=x, y=y) I get a data frame with 16 colums, but if, according to the documentation, I do dd <- data.frame(x=I(x), y=y) then str(dd)

I just r-sync'ed the r-devel version of R-1.7.0 (2003-03-11), compiled it under RH-8.0 and ran make check. The reg-tests-2 fails at the very end with the message stating that "object cement was not found". It looks like this piece of the regression test is new to version 1.7. The the piece of code generating the error is: if(require(MASS)) { teststep <- function(formula,

It could be a little bug or a fault in my setup but I notice that after I end an Rcmdr session I can't restart it without restarting Rgui (Windows) Do I need to add something to my environment variables? Is it an issue with Tcl/Tk or it's settings? Or what? It is not a big deal but if someone has a fix for this I would give it a shot I usually start Rcmd from the console library(Rcmdr)
